No Man's Sky may finally get co-op exploration and story overhaul in next update

The Atlas Rises update brings No Man's Sky up to version 1.3 and includes tons of features including new story content, galactic map/navigation overhaul, a new mission system, improved economics, teleportation portals, multiplayer and more. A flurry of refund demands and a lawsuit against the developer will attest to this.

It'd been previously rumoured that there'd be "joint exploration" coming to the game naturally this led to the assumption that multiplayer would be fully-incorporated into the No Man's Sky experience. Now, after the latest update, players are finally meeting each other in-game.

But what about the multiplayer?

Other players appear as floating orbs in the area being explored. Hello Games added that more details regarding update 1.3 will be released once it goes live, which is likely happening this week. Players will be able to voice chat with other players if they are nearby. However, with the addition of quick-travel portals, this might be a little easier. No Man's Sky players have always been asking for features such as the ability to salvage crashed freighters, fly close to planets' surfaces and land a ship without being automatically ejected from the cockpit - and they can now do all of those things. That's double the lore and interactions of the existing game. Not to mention a new alien race.

A feature that has been anticipated since the game launched, portals will allow players to travel vast distances very quickly and form an integral part of the new story. After Waking Titan, Atlas Rises.

Atlas Rises also promises to improve mapping and waypointing, as well as an overhaul to the game's trading system.

Install galactic technology to be able to filter the map by lifeform, wealth, and economy.

Discover and scavenge lost cargo from huge crashed Freighters on planetary surfaces.

A terrain editor has also been added, as has a new mission agent offering up side tasks to be undertaken on a user's journey. NPC guilds have been added with reputation standing, objective, and rewards. Players can increase their standing in guilds and unlock more hard and "more rewarding" missions. With the new trade goods being added in and a tiered crafting system, players could essentially supply and demand as they see fit across the stars. These will be quite rare but we want them to provide awe inspiring moments for the player.
